One of the most consistently dominant teams in one of the toughest divisions in the league, the Baltimore Ravens bring back a MVP quarterback and one of the best coaching staffs in the league to compete for yet another playoff push. While the team fell just short last year, falling to the eventual Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs, the Ravens did everything in their power to address some of the weaknesses to their roster and ensure they can compete evenly with Patrick Mahomes and his squad.
Baltimore already boasted a fairly stacked roster and the team got even better with the major addition of All-Pro running back Derrick Henry to help further their run first identity. Snagging cornerback Nate Wiggins and offensive tackle Roger Rosengarten in the draft gives Baltimore two plug and play starters with heaps of potential that should ultimately be an upgrade from what they had at those spots the season prior.

I’ve seen enough. Nate Wiggins is going to be an absolute ANIMAL in Baltimore!

Ultimately Lamar Jackson and John Harbaugh should continue to build upon the success they have had since the duo was formed. With an excellent roster, MVP quarterback, smart coaching, and a ferocious defense, this is going to be a deep playoff contender despite the toughness of their division, which may ding the win total just a bit.
Record prediction: 11-6
